1970s Fashion Icon - Jane Birkin Yes, a bag was named after her, but I first saw her in a French Vogue magazine at one of those specialty News stands (that seemed so exotic to me at the time) in Los Angeles. She embodied all that was the 70s. She could wear those Celia Birtwell Ossie Clark dresses and pants like no one else. I loved her simple yet perfectly chic hair styles and the confidence she always exuded.
